Brandin Iron Steakhouse

Went with Sunday School class? Everything was first rate. It is out of town so requires a small drive to get there.

Folks, I come before you today with a warning about the steaks at this establishment. When I took my first bite, I was transported back to my days in the service you know, those thrilling times huddled around an Army campfire, eating food from HOT As. This NY strip had all the flavor and texture of an MRE entree. Now I've eaten my share of Waffle House over the years, through many a late night. But even their meat offerings have more nuance than what was placed before me. This thing was saltier than the Dead Sea and thinner than an enlisted man's patience. I've seen more marbling on a slab of particle board. The strangest part was, our party all ordered the same dish but you'd never know it. One man's hunk of flesh looked like a ribeye while the next bore an unsettling resemblance to a cafeteria patty. The only consistency was a remarkable lack of consistency. Despite my initial hunger, I could not in good conscience finish such a travesty. I'd like to believe my standards remained high after all these years, but perhaps the real culprit was this so called steak that not even a veteran's iron stomach could endure. Consider yourselves warned, comrades steer clear of the meat here, lest your taste buds endure more punishment than they signed up for!

Excellent food!! I had the grilled sea bass. Never in my 60 years have I had it that yummy! My husband devoured the baked potato and steak. People working there are top notch friendly. Thank you for a great experience!

The salad bar is absolutely delicious but the steaks weren't really amazing. Not much flavor.
